CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS POUR TOUT USAGE ULTÉRIEUR.

2 Getting Started
2.1 Wireless Heart Rate Monitoring
The console is equipped with a wireless heart rate monitoring system in which electrodes, pressed
against the skin, transfer heart rate signals from the user to the console. The electrodes are inside the
chest strap (A) that the user wears during the workout. The transmitter strap delivers an optimal heart
rate reading when the electrodes are in direct contact with bare skin. However it functions properly
through a thin layer of wet clothing. The electrodes are two grooved surfaces on the underside of
the strap, and must remain wet to accurately transmit the electrical impulses of the heart back to the
receiver. To use, first moisten the electrodes. Then, secure the strap as high under the chest muscles
as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal breathing.
Electrodes must be wet to work properly. If it becomes necessary to re-moisten, grasp the center of
the strap, pull it away from your chest to expose the electrodes, and moisten. See diagram below for
correct positioning of the strap.
Note: Using the wireless heart rate telemetry chest strap will provide more accurate heart rate
readings than the hand pulse sensors.
Note: To ensure the highest performance, use the wireless chest strap that was provided with the
product.
A A
2.2 Contact Heart Rate
When using Contact Heart Rate make certain to grasp sensors firmly and keep hands still. If heart
rate seems substantially higher or lower than expected, remove hands from sensors until heart rate
disappears. Dry hands and grasp sensors again until heart rate seems accurate. If this does not
work you may need to slow the machine to get an accurate reading. We recommend, for safety and
accurate heart rate readings, that the user stand on the side rails when attempting to monitor heart
rate with contact electrodes.
Note: The contact heart rate system may be less or more accurate with different individuals.
10
2.3 Heart Rate Zone Training®
Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to monitor
the intensity of a workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the LIFE FITNESS
Heart Rate Zone Training® approach to exercise.
Zone Training identifies an exerciser’s ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing
cardiovascular fitness. The zone is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax), and its value
depends on the workout. The maximal heart rate formula is defined by the American College of
Sports Medicine’s “Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription”, 8th Edition, 2009. HRmax equals
to 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age.
HR MAX = 206.9 - (0.67 *age)
The LIFE FITNESS products feature these exclusive workouts designed to take full advantage of the
benefits of Heart Rate Zone Training+ exercise:
• FAT BURN • CARDIO • HEART RATE HILL • HEART RATE INTERVAL • EXTREME HEART RATE
Note: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining specific fitness goals and designing a
workout program.
The Heart Rate Training workout programs measure heart rate. Wear the telemetry heart rate chest
strap, or grip the contact heart rate sensors, to enable the on-board computer to monitor the heart
rate during a workout. The computer automatically adjusts the incline or level to maintain the target
heart rate based on the actual heart rate.

The Track Connect Console was designed to make navigation as simple as possible by using special
colors and keys. The console display was designed to reduce toggling between workout information.
Each piece of workout feedback, including level, time and speed, has its own dedicated window.
4.1 Pair Devices
Proximity:
- Enable Bluetooth, open the LFconnect app or Run Fit app and enable Bluetooth Login in
settings
- Touch your phone to the upper right-hand corner of the console to automatically connect
- When you are close enough to the console, tap the designated area to log in to the
console.
The Bluetooth Low Energy icon on the right side of the message center is displayed when a
compatible Bluetooth device is connected.
4.2 USB Indicator
The USB icon on the left side of the message center is displayed whenever a USB or other
device is plugged in. The USB port is used for charging or software updates.
4.3 Message Center
The message center provides instructional information to the user from the moment the
first key is pressed. The message center will coach the user through setting up a
workout, including selecting a workout and entering time, level, and other workout specific
information. Also during the workout if certain workout feedback like pace and METS are turned on in
the Settings Menu, the message center will periodically show that information.
4.4 Heart Rate Display
The heart rate display calculates the user’s actual heart rate in contractions or beats per
minute during a workout. The user must be holding on to the contact heart rate
electrodes or wearing a heart rate telemetry chest strap for the heart rate display to
function. See Section 2.1, The Heart Rate Telemetry Chest Strap. Life Fitness
recommends wearing the chest strap for the most accurate heart rate reading. If you are experiencing
problems with your heart rate reading please read Section 2.2, Contact Heart Rate for
recommendations on improving the contact heart rate reading.
4.5 Target Heart Rate Display
Target heart rate is a percentage of a user’s maximum heart rate. The goal is to target a range that
enables one’s heart and lungs to receive the most benefit from a workout. The console calculates
target heart rate by taking the maximum heart rate and multiplying it by an intensity level. Maximum
heart rate = 206.9 - (.67 x user’s age). Target heart rate is shown continuously during a Heart Rate
Training workout. The target heart rate can be changed at any point during the workout.
Example: User’s Age is 45.
206.9 - (.67 x 45) = 176.75.
177 is the Maximum Heart Rate for a 45 year old.
177 x 65% = 115. 115 is the optimal target heart rate for weight loss and fat burning.

4.6 Workout Profile Display
The workout profile graphically displays the intensity of a workout with columns of
various heights. During the workout the current intensity level the user is in is
signified by an arrow located above the appropriate column. During a heart rate
workout the workout profile acts like a graph of the user’s heart rate. Each of the nine rows of the
profile will represent the user’s actual heart rate as a percentage of their heart rate max. Therefore by
the end of the workout, the user will be able to visually see their heart rate ranges throughout the
workout.
Row Target Heart Rate Percent Range
1 <30%
2 30 - 39%
3 40 - 49%
4 50 - 59%
5 60 - 69%
6 70 - 79%
7 80 - 89%
8 90 - 99%
9 100%
Note: The percent in the table represents the user’s actual heart rate as a percent of their heart rate
max. The heart rate max is 206.9 - (.67 x user’s age). For example: A 40 year old’s heart rate max
would be 206.9 - (.67 x 40) = 180. During their workout at the first interval their actual heart was 100.
Therefore 100/180 = .56 or 56% and the profile would display the user at row four for the first interval
of the workout.
4.7 Workout Profile Indicator Arrow
The arrow located above the columns in the workout profile displays the position
the user is at in the workout. The position is represented by the time entered during
workout setup divided by the number of columns (24). For example during a
24-minute workout the arrow would move from column to column every minute.
4.8 Distance Display
Distance is shown in miles. The distance formula tries to replicate miles as if the
exercise was being conducted outdoors. The distance formula will not always be
consistent with other LIFE FITNESS products or other manufacturer’s products.
Distance can be converted to kilometers in the Settings Menu. See Section 5.6, How to Use the
Settings Menu.
4.9 Calorie Display
A calorie is a unit used to measure energy. It represents the amount of energy
obtained from food. One calorie is approximately enough energy to increase the
temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. The console calculates an
average caloric burn based on a LIFE FITNESS proprietary calorie equation. This
formula may not match other manufacturer’s machines or other LIFE FITNESS machines.

4.10 Level / Incline Display
a. Level Display (Cross-Trainers / Bikes) – There are two types of levels used on Life
Fitness bikes and cross-trainers. The first type of level is the actual brake resistance
level. This type of level is only adjustable by the user in a manual workout. The range of
possible brake resistance levels is 1-20. The second type of level is difficulty level. There
are 20 difficulty levels. Difficulty level corresponds to a range of actual brake resistance levels and is
only used in RANDOM, HILL, EZ INCLINE, and SPORTS TRAINING workouts. So when you select a
difficulty level of 10 it corresponds to a range of actual brake resistance levels of 5-14. During
RANDOM, HILL, EZ INCLINE, and SPORTS TRAINING the difficulty level will only be displayed during
workout setup and anytime you choose to change the level during the workout. At all other times
during a workout the actual level will be displayed.
b. Level / Incline Display (Treadmills) – There are two types of levels used on LIFE FITNESS treadmills.
The first type of level is an incline level or percentage. Incline level is only manually adjusted by the
user in a manual workout. The range of possible incline percentages is 0 - 12% (F3), 0 - 15% (T3)
and 0.8 - 15% (T5) and can be manually adjusted in 0.5% increments. The second difficulty level
corresponds to a range of actual incline percentages. Difficulty levels are only used in RANDOM,
HILL, EZ INCLINE, and SPORTS TRAINING workouts. So when a user selects a difficulty level of 10 it
corresponds to a range of incline percentages between 3.0 - 7.0 (F3 and T3) and 3.8% - 7.5% (T5).
During RANDOM, HILL, EZ INCLINE, and SPORTS TRAINING the difficulty level will be displayed only
during workout setup and anytime the difficulty level is changed during the workout. At all other times
during these workouts the incline percentage is displayed.
c. Changing the Level during a Workout – Use the Left / Right arrows to increase or decrease your
level during a workout.

5 Workouts, Workout Selection Buttons and Settings
5.1 Workout Overviews
The Track Connect Console has 15 specially designed pre-programmed workouts that have been
developed by LIFE FITNESS.
Note: There are 17 pre-programmed workouts on the T5 Treadmill.
Each workout has a different goal. Read the workout descriptions carefully so that you can develop
a workout routine that focuses on reaching your specific goals. The workout descriptions on the
following pages all have headers labeled:
• Beginner – Just Starting
• Experienced – Fit
• Advanced – Athlete
Beginner workouts are workouts designed for users just starting to workout or just starting a workout
routine. Beginner workouts have limited gradual intensity adjustments. Experienced workouts are
designed for users seeking a more challenging workout. These users should have a stronger fitness
base. Advanced workouts are designed for athletes training for cardiovascular endurance and special
events.
Different workouts have different setup steps. This section provides details on the steps themselves.
The main screen of the console is known as the “Select Workout” screen.
When this screen appears on the console, use the WORKOUT SELECTION buttons to scroll through
all the workout choices and select a workout by pressing ENTER. To begin a QUICK START workout,
press ENTER when the above “Select Workout” screen appears.
Throughout the workout setup process, the Up / Down arrows can be used to adjust the value that is
selected and the
Left / Right arrows can be used to scroll back and forth between different steps. In order to advance
to the next step, either press the Right arrow or enter key. After entering the last step, press ENTER to
begin the workout.
QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps involved in selecting a
specific workout program. Begin a QUICK START workout by pressing the ENTER key at the SELECT
WORKOUT screen. After ENTER is pressed, a constant-level workout begins. The intensity level does
not change automatically. You must change it using the arrows.
